This annotated bibliography was compiled to highlight the submarine geology of the Hawaiian Islands and identify known and potential marine geologic hazards with special emphasis on turbidity currents, submarine slides and ...

S>Some recent results from the Los Alamos program in which hydraulic fracturing is used for the recovery of geothermal energy are discussed. The location is about 4 kilometers west and south of the ring fault of the ...

A comparative assessment of five sites is being prepared as part of a Continental Scientific Drilling Program (CSDP) review of thermal regimes for the purpose of scoping areas for future research and drilling activities. ...

"This report presents analytical data--chemical and isotopic (BOI8 and BD)--and other information on water samples collected during the period 1973-1976 from a 1262m (4137-ft) deep research borehole at the summit of Kilauea ...

The overall or ultimate program envisions a small (10 MW) field experimental, highly instrumented, binary fluid cycle power plant facility planned to confirm the concept and evaluate technical and economic feasibility of ...

A 1262-m-deep bore hole was drilled at the summit of Kilauea Volcano, Hawaii, to test predictions based on surface geophysical surveys and to obtain information on the hydrothermal regime above a postulated magma reservoir. ...

The scientific feasibility of extracting energy directly from buried circulating magma resources is being assessed. One of the tasks of the project is the study of geophysical measuring systems to locate and define buried ...

If it is economically feasible to exploit a resource, the period of exploitation will be affected by a number of economic factors. In the discussion below, the role of the following variables in the lifetime of oil, gas, ...

Both replenishable and nonreplenishable resources are exhaustible
and even finite nonreplaceable resources can have infinite economic
lives. The concept of ecological equilibrium) in which total
recruitment of new mass is ...

"This environmental impact assessment addresses the design, construction, and operation of an electric generating plant (3 to 4 MWe) and research station (Hawaii Geothermal Research Station (HGRS)) in the Puna district on ...

"A test well 3,000 to 5,000 feet in depth is proposed to be drilled 0.7 miles south of Halemaumau crater in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Island of Hawaii. It represents the first attempt to drill above a magma chamber ...

This report has been prepared to make available and archive the background scientific data and related information collected on ecological resources during the preparation of the environmental impact statement (EIS) for ...

Sandia Laboratories expertise in Earth-penetrating projectiles has been applied to problems of geothermal resource research. Field trials of an experimental terradynamics electrode for resistivity surveys have been carried ...

Although most Kilauea eruptions produce effusive basaltic lavas, about 1 percent of the prehistoric and historical eruptions have been explosive. Multiple steam explosions from Halemaumau Crater in 1924 followed subsidence ...
